"A good deal."

Sound
With four tweeters the high end is accentuated- oftentimes I've turned down the treble to compensate for this. Otherwise this puts out impressive quality for its price.
Features
This is a three-way speaker in a world of two-ways. Four tweeters are nice. Big horn. Big woofer. Yummy.
Quality
A trapezoidal cabinet would have been better, as the weight leans forward a bit. The grill is high quality and it has protective corners. Handles are plastic but sturdy. Carpet is great. My cat has tried to use these things as a scratching post but it's all on there. I think eventually I will screw on a mounting post for a stand.
Value
VERY good deal. If you're on a budget and need good PA, I strongly recommend these. They are pretty much the best entry-level 15" PA speakers, and a good alternative if you want some added bass from some 12"s.

This is a very good looking speaker. It looks big and intimidating. You'll get the women with this speaker. But who needs women when you've got two of these? Haha-

Had to tweek alittle but with that said I hooked up a Behringer EP2500 in stereo and DJ an out side party on a lake and everyone heard the music load and clear. That is impressive.
Sound
Can take a lot of power but I find the highs are too high had to use a EQ to adjust and put on stands so the tweeters weren't ripping peoples faces off. With that said after I did those two things they rocked.
Quality
Made very well no complaints, heavey duty wood construction allows me to put on stands with no bass loss.
Value
Great price no complaints

"GSM 1580 Speakers DJ review."
These are nice speakers, dont let the 175 watts fool u, if you have a nice amp they can handle 350 watts. I've used them for 2 gigs already and alot of people said I Need more BASS. So i'm getting a separate subwoofer and another amp to take care of that. Other than the dissapointment of bass, these are a good buy.
Sound
I'm using a Tapco J1400 amplifier which pushed out 310w per channel. Which is perfect because these speakers can handle 350w max. The highs on the speakers are very HIGH i suggest getting an eq to lower the highs. The mids sound just right, the only disappointment are the 15" subs. It has so so bass, but more mids coming out of the sub than bass.
Features
Is PA speakers, what features do u expect from speakers ?
Ease of Use
No speakon input. No mount hole for speaker stands.
Quality
Nice carpet, these speakers look very well built, Very light weight.
Value
Paid 249.00 Shipped. I like the price
Manufacturer Support
I've called Gemini about other concerns and they were more than happy to help me out.
The Wow Factor
If you want more BASS look for something else, but if you like high highs and good mids go for it.
